Case study // In our industry, we can really only migrate servers on weekends, therefore we had to ensure that the relocation took place quickly. // Hans-Michael Schania on the importance of a quick migration process. // Many IT and telecom providers do not operate a hotline during these periods, which means there is no one to contact in the event of problems. Colt really stood out in this area; all ICT services including Bloomberg, were seamlessly migrated and up and running within a few hours. // Hans-Michael Schania, Managing Director of Aurelius Capital Management GmbH At the same time as the relocation, Aurelius Capital Management took a decision to reduce its number of service providers by working with Colt as a single source of network provision. Building on an already successful relationship, Colt and Colt Platinum partner Savecall have established themselves as trusted partners for delivering comprehensive advice and solution expertise.
